$ 75.00Semolina Gnocchi goes back to Roman times but the more famous potato gnocchi dates from the sixteenth or, more likely, seventeenth century—well after Spanish explorers brought potatoes from South America and introduced them to Italian kitchens. The word gnocchi were thought to come from “nocca,” which means knuckles. In contemporary Italian, gnocchi mean dumpling – all words that imply the small, tight, rounded shape of gnocchi that we know today. This workshop will demonstrate how to make potato and cauliflower gnocchi, then participants will make their own gnocchi using instant potatoes!
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll learn to make three different types of gnocchi:
